For over 30 years, Sachi Braden, President and Principal Broker of Sachi Hawaii, has defined excellence in the purchase and sale of luxury real estate in Hawaii. By blending deep expertise in primary residences, vacation homes, and high-end investment properties, Sachi has established a premier firm where elite professionals deliver a comprehensive, globally-informed service experience.
Sachi Hawaii’s success is rooted in an unmatched ability to connect sellers with the right buyers—wherever they may be. Whether you are listing a penthouse in Kakaako or an oceanfront estate in Diamond Head, our team leverages strategic marketing, a vast international network, and localized insight to position your property in front of the world’s most qualified investors.
Beyond traditional sales, we are recognized leaders in strategic acquisitions. Our longstanding relationships with developers, architects, and engineers allow us to navigate even the most nuanced transactions, including vacant land, unique luxury developments, and off-market opportunities that require a highly targeted approach.
International Exposure
At the heart of Sachi Hawaii is a deeply personal commitment to global connectivity. Sachi Braden, born in Osaka, Japan, brings a culturally sensitive and globally informed perspective to every transaction. This worldview is woven into the firm’s DNA, where cultural fluency is a genuine competitive advantage rather than an afterthought.
Our multilingual team—representing English, Japanese, Chinese, and Korean—allows us to connect with buyers on a level that transcends the transaction. We build trust, clarity, and lasting relationships across cultural lines, ensuring a seamless experience for our diverse clientele.
Through decades of international buyer outreach, Sachi Hawaii has cultivated a faithful following of affluent clients worldwide. As a frequent seminar presenter throughout Japan, Sachi and her team engage directly with prospective investors, covering everything from creative financing and FIRPTA regulations to the lifestyle nuances of making Hawaii a home.
Honolulu Luxury Market Authority
The Honolulu real estate market remains a high-demand sector defined by limited land inventory and consistent international interest. High-net-worth individuals typically concentrate their investments in established neighborhoods like Diamond Head and Kahala, as well as the luxury condominium corridors of Kakaako. Because this segment involves complex variables—including foreign ownership tax regulations and specialized financing—clients rely on Sachi Hawaii’s authority to navigate the local landscape with precision.
Our firm consistently emerges as a market leader due to our specialized focus on the luxury sector and our capacity to bridge the gap between local sellers and global investors. Founded by Sachi Braden, the firm is a recognized benchmark for excellence when identifying the top agents in Honolulu, possessing the operational capacity required to successfully execute multi-million-dollar valuations.
True market authority extends beyond sales volume. It requires a comprehensive understanding of localized zoning laws, shoreline management, and exclusive off-market networks. Sachi Hawaii leverages decades of transaction data and property vetting to ensure that both domestic and international clients receive accurate intelligence and secure representation during the transfer of premium assets.
Open House Group
Sachi Hawaii is proud to be a part of the Open House Group, Co., LTD, a publicly traded powerhouse in the Japanese real estate market. With over 70 offices distributed across Japan, Open House Group provides Sachi Hawaii clients with a unique and powerful conduit to Asian capital.
As one of the largest and fastest-growing real estate establishments in Japan, Open House Group grossed 8.9 billion dollars in revenue for the 2025 fiscal year. Our joint venture provides us with an unparalleled network of potential buyers looking to purchase Hawaii real estate—a strategic tool exclusive to Sachi Hawaii.

In-House Photography and Videography
First impressions are everything. At Sachi Hawaii, we treat visual storytelling as a critical investment. Unlike brokerages that outsource these tasks, our in-house creative team maintains full control over how your home is presented. Using professional-grade equipment, we produce ultra-wide angle photography and cinematic HD video that captures not just the square footage, but the feeling of the space—the light, the views, and the unique architectural details.
These visuals serve as the backbone of our entire marketing ecosystem, ensuring a consistent, compelling, and high-quality impression across every channel and every audience.
